Feedback Dynamics
Causal loops where outputs circle back to affect inputs, creating reinforcement or dampening patterns.
Overview
Feedback dynamics are the foundation of systems intelligence. Positive feedback loops amplify initial changes, creating accelerating growth or decline. Negative feedback loops dampen changes, creating stability. Understanding feedback dominates system behavior understanding.
